So, what is aspartame-acesulfame?
Aspartame-acesulfame is a low-calorie sweetener used as a sugar substitute in many food and beverage products. This ingredient is a combination of two non-nutritive sweeteners: aspartame and acesulfame potassium (ace-K). Aspartame-acesulfame is commonly found in sugar-free drinks, chewing gum, desserts, and other low-calorie foods. It has a sweet taste similar to sugar, but with fewer calories. Aspartame-acesulfame is known for its heat stability and prolonged sweetness, making it a popular choice among food manufacturers. Despite some controversy surrounding its safety, it is approved for consumption by regulatory bodies in many countries.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
